forum like this one, but not landscape oriented?
« on: January 30, 2012, 07:25:48 pm »

Most of forums are about equipment and rule of thirds. I like this one, but it's mostly about landscape photography, which I'm not very interested in.

Only interesting forum i have found is photo.net, but I'm wondering if there's anything else out there worth reading.

Odd comment.  I'm a landscape photographer and sometimes I feel I see everything but..

Have you taken the time to peel back the covers and read what's going on?  Interesting reading in the medium format section and very little landscape, then again there's more to find in the "Digital Cameras & Shooting Techniques" as well as the "Raw & Post Processing, Printing" just to name a few.

The old saying is still true "You can't please everyone".

It also would have been nice if you had included a clue as to what you were actually interested in.

Well, I guess Amazon is about Amazons, and Google is about, well, googling, and Blurb of course is about blurbing, Flicker flickering, so Luminous Landscape must be about landscaping.

My assumption is based on forum sections. Landscape photography is the only one having dedicated section. Obviously landscape photography is not the only topic discussed on this forum, but this is not the point.

What I'm interested in is intimate photojournalism, but i'm looking for general photography forum.

In fact it is true!

Our arquitecture shooters are indeed doing Urban-landscape
Our commercial-fashion-beauty, Body-landscape
the ones who shoot candids do Social-landscape

Even our endlesses discussions about DR, 35mm vs MF, mine-is-bigger-than-yours-and-am-right-you-wrong
could be considered as egoland...sorry...Legoland-landscape.

Indeed this is a landscape site !

There is no lack of forums on photography on the web. Excellent forums, however, do not abound -- Luminous -Landscape is one of the few. I find that this site and most contributors offer unparalleled findings, comments and advice. One does not need to be solely a landscape photographer to benefit from reading and occasionally posting a comment.  There is no need to always pigeon-hole the type of photography one does: I have a lecture on Canadian Portraitists that include William Notman, Yousuf Karsh, V. Tony Hauser, Edward Burtynsky, Ken Lum, and Andrzej Maciejewski, not all of whom fit that particular pigeon-hole.

Great, I was hoping for some advice on rose pruning and preparing for spring planting...

Lemme help! As Billy Lance Swan almost said.

Stick up a fary light circuit in the garden and the problem's solved: luminous landscape (if garden's big enough).
